He said: “Let him lose his eyesight and let’s stop treating him like a VIP.

“If he needs treatment, let him pay for it himself rather than get it on the NHS – he’s got plenty of money.”

His comments come a year after Sutcliffe's “away day” to a specialist eye unit at Frimley Park Hospital, Surrey sparked outrage.

The murderer of 13 women was pictured walking around the premises without handcuffs.

He was jailed for life in 1981 over the murders between 1975 and 1981 in Yorkshire and Manchester.

MURDERER: Sutcliffe was jailed for life for killing 13 women

It comes after claims Sutcliffe has been given a jail “buddy” to help him read letters from friends.

He told the friend: "I’ve got a bloke now who comes in to help me.

“He has agreed to read my letters for me provided I stick with him and don’t get anybody else to do it.

“I am also unable to answer a lot of letters so some people have stopped writing to me. I also have trouble pushing the buttons on the phone when I am making a call and often have to get someone to help me.

“It gets worse by the day.

“It’s a terrible situation and I wish it would get sorted.”
